Meditation for RENEWAL

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will

ROMANS 12:2 (NIV)

Good News

To truly experience the fullness of what God wants to do in our lives, reaping the true “good life”, we must prioritize God above everything else and walk in His Spirit daily.

The goodness of God’s Grace gives us the ability to put to death any unhealthy expressions of our worldly desires that are distracting us from Him.

As we transform into a new creation in Christ, we continually renew our minds on what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent and praiseworthy. When we set our eyes on not what is seen, but what is unseen, the work of the Spirit inside of us has the capability to take root and abundantly grow the fruit of the Spirit into all areas of our lives. This is how we stretch our spiritual muscle; GOODNESS.

A Prayer for GOODNESS

Lord, I pray that You give me life in Your ways and turn my eyes from looking at worthless things that do not glorify You. I receive the grace that You have given me to not conform to this world and to access transformation by continually renewing my mind through authentic engagement with You in all that I do. Help me be self aware of when I’m falling into temptation Lord, and help me turn quickly back to you. Help me to make this a discipline of reclaiming my heart and mind; empowered by Your Spirit. Create in me a pure heart , Lord, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Thank you for Your tender mercy and love. It is in your name I pray, Amen
